Title: My 5 yr old loves it!! New before-bed game!
Review: This is exactly the type of game we needed! My son is in kindergarten and is just starting to get the hang of reading sight words. This will help SO MUCH. It’s perfectly repetitive and even has some visual cues sometimes (the numbers, for example). He’s doing a great job!He’s autistic, so this also helps us with learning to follow directions and take turns. It’s so fun…. Def getting some booster packs!The only issue we have is the tiles getting stuck or coming out in multiples (sometimes). That’s when we use it on carpeting; if we do it on a hard surface, it’s fine!Highly recommend this for ages 4+!

Title: lots of fun but could include more sight words
Review: I got this for my daughter, who is in kindergarten, who is really struggling with learning her sight words and does not enjoy flash cards. We are not to the point to play the game as instructed, instead we are just popping the plastic chips out of the word dispenser and reading them together and then trying to find the match on our cards. My 4 year old is also joining in, once again more as a matching game as she can’t read these words yet either. They like sliding the word dispenser and popping the plastic chips back in if there’s no match. There are six cards and all are printed front and back for the choice of twelve cards (the game says the green side is less competitive and the red side is more competitive), and there are nine words on each card. Here are my reasons for 4 stars: The sight words that are reviewed are as follows: and, are, come, for, have, here, in, me, my, now, our, said, she, the, there, they, three, two, want, we, went, what, where, who. Being there are only 24 words, and in kindergarten (at least at my daughter’s school) she is learning 50, so I wish there were more words to learn in the game (like the word “she” is played but not the word “he”) Also the word “she” is only on one out of the twelve cards; it seems that some words are focused on more than others. So while I still find this game is helpful, the girls find it fun, and it was very easy to set-up and learn, I do wish it was more in-depth.

Title: Great learning game!
Review: This is a favorite game of my 4 year old. We are working on him learning sight words so he can begin his reading journey. He’s slowly picking it up and I think it’s from this game.

Review: I bought this game to play with my 7 and 5 year old sons. My 7 year old has a hard time learning to read and write so I figured introducing some sight words in a fun way could help him. We’ve played a few times now, he loves to play this with me and he’s learned a few words by sight already! Definitely a great teaching tool!

Review: This game is great for learning sight words. Unfortunately the game and box were damaged during shipping. The game still works but it’s unfortunate when something new comes damaged.

Review: My son is about to start Prep and beginning to recognize sight words, so this game will come in very useful. So far he loves it, and operating the zinger is a fun novelty.
